Star Crossed Lovers Poems - Poems about Star Crossed Lovers

The Star Crossed Lovers, Romeo and Juliet

       Such deep, impassioned, love
       startles our mortal ways.
       Could we possibly have that
       same eternal love?
       Flowing in our souls and blood,
  

star-crossed lovers

We’re destined to love and fated to seethe.
But our stars don’t align
Were you somebody who just meant to leave?
If walking away was the correct choice to find a delight
Was I ever part of your everyday thinking?
If not, I should’ve kept things right
I miss your morning kisses running on my cheeks
I miss our evening catfights…
This time,

Star Crossed Lovers

Holding on in a little wood shack 
Their memories will always remain
Knowing somehow forever is not to be
Warm moments dull the pain
He said, Are we star-crossed lovers? 
She said, No don’t talk that way
He said, Are we star-crossed lovers? 
She said, No don’t talk that way.

Leaving leaves all behind
Or so it was supposed to be
But

Star Crossed Lovers

Before we go to sleep tonight,
I'll remember what we have.

I won't feel sad that you are not here,
Cos we have true romance.

We have it all a love so bright,
Like a diamond in the sky.

Look at the stars from where you are,
We are the bright one on the right,
We'll be together despite the odds, no matter

Oh, Romeo

"From forth the fatal loins of these two foes,
A pair of star cross'd lovers take their life,
Whose misadventur'd piteous overthrows
Doth with their death bury their parents' strife."
— Prologue, Romeo and Juliet


As teens, they were told you’re too young
Time passed and they both were married
Another vowed they were among
Lovers who stole hearts once buried

Time passed and

Star-Crossed Lovers

This sparkling girl had an inborn predilection 
for the lilting life’s passionate piquancy.
In the rhapsodic ripples of zephyr 
she floated like a beguiled butterfly
across her seamless sensuous sky called life, 
and on its wings she painted her dreams
like the flowers in the valley of love.

When his magnetic aura spread on her feelings,
and encompassed her to

Star-Crossed Lovers

A Venusian and Martian met one day
But a language barrier stood in their way.
They observed the stars
Between Venus and Mars
Still, they had very little to say.

Both are unique and complex in make
Desiring a love that would make Earth shake.
Though broken at heart
They must stay apart.
There are plenty more options to take.

If only their warring families

Star-Crossed Lovers

After many cold winters, they met again, 
Under the poplar tree on a starry moonlit night.
Though they had planned it over many a time,
It came to fruition after such long lapse of years. 

Once they loved as no lovers could ever
In devotion, never had they faltered, never once failed,
But fate was sadly against this star-crossed

Star-Crossed Lovers

If a single star, is a brief delay
For a ship too far, in a far-fetched way
Then a full-flung fling, on a fateful fly
Is a hull-hung thing, on a hateful high

When I sing my song, in a sad singer's voice
In a mad sing-along, and a bad singer’s choice
There is just one wrong, and a single mystery
For

Star-Crossed Lovers

Romeo and Juliet; Stella and Will; Rose and Jack; 
In stories, novels, and films star-crossed lovers are many;
Though they love like cherubims, why do their stars soon shine black?
Fate pushes them toward death, after tempting them plenty...!

It's not the celluloid heroes and heroines suffer,
Many love immensely; thorns and not flowers they acquire;
As though constantly tempted

Star Crossed Lovers

A familiar tale so oft told
of one so shy .. the other bold
an affair that started in the rain
was love a consequence or pain?

Star Crossed

We talked
Then walked
The stars aligned
Too briefly
Now two fates
Resigned

We hoped
We dreamed
But not to be
The ache 
Frustrates 
Reality

A senseless joy
When girl 
Meets boy
To lose 
Un-promised
Hopeful joy

Life is cruel
Life is kind
No guarantee
Of hearts
Designed
To meet

The purpose
Only time 
Will tell
It's secret 
To this
Living spell

The universe
Is not to blame
We are not pawns
In some 
Heavenly 
Game

The stars
Burn brightly
For the few
So brief, and

Star-Crossed Lovers

There are two of us in here,
each hoping God will appear.
Ego seeks gain, our soul, bliss;
joy where there’s nothing amiss.

In truth we’re soul but know not,
since we are in thought forms caught,
so ego claims that it’s us
and kicks our soul off the bus.

Ego’s at head, soul at heart,
both within, yet stand apart,
thus causing inner conflict.

Star-Crossed Lovers

She walked with God
and he walked alone

When they would meet 
the relationship 
became the three of them

But he would never accept
the power of the supreme

And so the battle began
of the star-crossed lovers
accompanied by the Man

"I believe in cave men"
he would say
as she would scream in horror

"We agreed our daughter would learn creationism"
she would plead
as he
